Chapter 0209 Wan Wangxiao Xiang, Focus on Sheji!
Listening to Yangcheng Yan's words of reverence, Liu Ying only smiled lightly, as if he waved his hand casually.
——The benefits that can be brought by the grain government camp have naturally been within Liu Ying's expectations.
After all, no matter how you say it, the essence of the Shaofu Guanzhong grain and rice promoted by Liu Ying is to end up in an official capacity in order to achieve a monopoly on the grain market in Guanzhong!
And the word 'monopoly', whether it appears in any stage of civilization in any form of government, is bound to bring incomparably greater benefits.
At the same time, what is different from the monopoly of capital is that the main purpose of the 'official monopoly of the Guanzhong grain market by the Liu Han regime' promoted by Liu Ying is not to make huge profits.
First of all, the most significant change brought by the grain government to the current Han family, and at the same time, the most important change for Liu Ying is undoubtedly the stabilization of grain prices.
In the feudal era, especially in the context of the era when everything was waiting to be rebuilt and people's minds were at ease, the grain price of 'steady and slow decline' would play an irreplaceable and important role in the stability of the political power and society.
Secondly, Liu Ying relied on the grain official camp to justifiably control the strategic material of 'grain' for the central government of the Han family at the point when he had not yet inherited the throne.
As for the next few years, the use of 'grain storage on behalf of the people' to make profits to enrich the government treasury is actually just incidental; even if the grain is run by the government, it will not be able to bring financial revenue to the Shaofu and the court at all, and even if Liu Ying needs to put money into it, Liu Ying will still promote it without hesitation.
Of course, on the premise of not violating the original intention, if the central financial situation can be significantly improved as it is now, so that the domestic budget of the Shaofu can turn around the decline of the past few years, Liu Yingzi is also happy to see it.
In other words, to obtain a certain degree of benefits through the grain government to improve the situation of the Shaofu, it is also the 'road to rejuvenation' planned by Liu Ying for the future Shaofu.
- Today's Han Shaofu is too 'thin'······
Don't talk far, let's just say that fifteen years ago, what was the situation of Qin Shaofu?
Chen Sheng and Wu Guanggang unveiled the rod in Daze Township, and Qin Capital Xianyang closed his eyes and said: Close the door and let Shaofu go!
After receiving the counterinsurgency order issued by the second emperor in a panic, in just over ten days, Qin Shaofu Zhang Han used the prisoners who built the Mausoleum of the First Emperor on Lishan to equip an armed force with a number of up to 500,000 (one says 700,000)!
For nearly a year after that, the entire Qin court relied almost entirely on Zhang Han's prisoner army against the surging rebel army in the world.
first defeated Chen Sheng's general Zhou Wen and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in one fell swoop, and then went east to Hangu, and then defeated Tian Zang, Li Gui and other righteous generals in Xingyang;
At the heel of the pillar outside the gate, Zhang Han followed closely behind, and it was the highlight of 'breaking Deng Shuo, defeating Wu Xu, beheading Cai Ci, and descending to Song Liu', forcing Chen Sheng to flee to the city father.
In the end, the Great Qin prisoners led by Zhang Han defeated Chen She's general Zhang He in the western suburbs of the city father, and finally Chen Shenggong was defeated and killed by the coachman Zhuang Jia······
After completely producing Chen Sheng, the commander of the rebel army who established himself as the king of Chu, Zhang Han won many battles, and even defeated Xiang Liang, the uncle of the overlord Xiang Yu, head-on, so that his army was defeated and died!
If it weren't for the final, Zhang Han crashed into Xiang Yu's department under Julu City, and now, whether it is the 'eleventh year of the Han Dynasty' or the 'fourteenth year of the second year of Qin', I'm afraid there are two opinions······
As the last general of the Qin court, Zhang Han has achieved such great success, and his personal ability is naturally an important factor that cannot be ignored.
But at the same time, Qin Shaofu's strong ability to mobilize personnel and materials is also the key to Zhang Han's journey eastward and the lack of righteous troops wherever he passed.
Obviously, as the future controller of the Han family, Liu Ying also hopes that his Shaofu can have the staggering mobilization and mobilization ability of Qin Shaofu.
But the actual situation is too far from Liu Ying's expectations······
Twenty years ago, what kind of courage did Qin Shaofu carry on his shoulders?
——Repair Afang and the Mausoleum of the First Emperor of Lishan near Xianyang, cast the Great Wall in the north, and build a transportation network composed of 'Qin Straight Road' in the whole world!
Even the remote and remote Southwest Yi was laid down by Qin Shaofu, who did not believe in evil, and laid a few five-foot roads!
With such a huge infrastructure task, Qin Shaofu at that time was effortless to deal with!
On the other hand, what about today's Han Shaofu?
——A Chang'an City, since the fifth year of the Han Dynasty 'repaired' to the present, it has been the eleventh year of the Han Dynasty, and Chang'an City still does not see even a brick or tile······
Even a Zheng Guoqu that had existed for a long time and only needed to be cleaned and maintained simply was finally completed by Liu Ying throwing off his old face and using the identity of the prince to prostitute the people in Guanzhong.
From the simple comparison of these items, it is not difficult to see that today's Han Shaofu is really 'weak' to an outrageous degree.
If it is said that Qin Shaofu twenty years ago was a burly man with five big and three thick, tigers and bears, then the current Han Shaofu is still just a baby waiting to be fed······
As the only one in the political system of the Three Princes and Nine Princes, Shaofu can not need the ability, but only need to ensure the position of absolute loyalty to the Son of Heaven, which is of great significance to Liu Ying, who is about to become the 'uncrowned Son of Heaven'.
It is no exaggeration to say: After becoming the Son of Heaven, in the four to five years from being crowned an adult and marrying a pro-government, how loud Liu Ying can be in court meetings almost all depends on how big the Shaofu is!
If at that time, Shaofu could put on the temperament of a big dog without any effort above the court discussion, and said to the courtiers and officials, 'If you want money, tell your brother, brother will help you beg Your Majesty', then Liu Ying is not to say that she is fifteen or sixteen years old, even if she is ten years old, she still has authority at all!
What's more, if Shaofu can reach the level of Qin Shaofu, who built infrastructure in the whole world twenty or even thirty years ago, and did not struggle at all, Liu Ying can learn from Liu Che, the martial emperor in history, to come up with a 'uncrowned son of heaven and Tianxian'!
But as far as the current situation of Shaofu is concerned, not to mention that in the future, it will support and increase the confidence of the young son Liu Ying, so that Liu Ying can not be dragged back, so that Liu Ying will be scolded by Pingyang Hou Cao Shen again because of his 'poor internal situation', which is already thankful······
In his previous life, after being completely reduced to a puppet emperor, Liu Ying deduced countless possibilities.
In the end, Liu Ying came to several conclusions: the Anglo-Bu rebellion must lead the army to the battle; The words of the old lady must be listened to; And - the internal treasury of the Shaofu must be filled as soon as possible.
With such an awareness, and the calculations and planning of several years in the previous life, what Liu Ying is doing now has come into being.
First of all, it was the melting of the three-baht coin, which was stopped by Liu Ying in the name of "repairing the Zhengguo Canal", which alleviated the situation of Shaofu's "getting poorer and poorer".
Then, it was the matter of the grain and rice of the Shaofu government, so that the internal government got rid of the scrap money and three baht hoarded in his hand, and obtained the granary needed for the grain government camp for free.
In this way, no matter how poor the current Shaofu is, it is just 'no income', not as usual, not only does it not make money, but it is also constantly losing money.
And the situation of 'no entry' has long been included in the plan by Liu Ying, and in the future that is visible to the naked eye, Shaofu will completely enter the normal mode of 'making a lot of money'.
Among them, the part of the government's grain and rice policy of 'storing grain on behalf of the people' can bring tens of millions of stone of grain income to Shaofu every year.
With these short-term stable and incomparably huge strategic resources in hand, the Shaofu's voice above the court will be significantly enhanced.
But as Liu Ying said when he launched the policy of 'storing grain on behalf of the people': the people will not be poor forever, nor will they always need someone to 'store grain on behalf of the people'.
The Shaofu profited from the matter of 'storing grain on behalf of the people', and it was only a quick amount of money to accumulate the start-up capital for revival in three or five years.
What can really make Shaofu stronger and stronger, and become the confidence of the young son Liu Ying in the future, is still the poll tax that cannot be beaten······
Thinking of this, Liu Ying finally came back from her long thoughts, glanced at Yang Chengyan with a little meaning, and immediately bowed her hand to Prime Minister Xiao He with a solemn face.
"Since my father's emperor obeyed the order of the heavens and attacked the tyrannical Qin, and established the Han Zuo and made peace with the world, my Han Dynasty has really been in ruins."
"Although my father was wise and martial, and allowed the people to recuperate with Huang Lao's inaction, the emptiness of the government and the treasury has also lasted for nearly ten years, and it is impossible to solve it."
"The treasury of the Prime Minister's Mansion still has to close the annual income of more than 20 million stones, although many of them are stretched, they are not completely powerless; However, if there is little money in the house, there will be nothing for many years, and if you want to dedicate yourself to the country, there will be unsuccessful ······"
The tone was full of heaviness when he said this, and Liu Ying looked at Xiao He's gaze, only quietly with a touch of calmness.
"Xiao Xiangguo's pillar stone, indulgence is silent, Xiao Xiang should also know: the matter of Shaofu's official grain and rice, the profit is only three or five years old; When the people are rich and each has a private warehouse, the matter of 'storing grain on behalf of the people' in the Shaofu should be abolished. ”
"Therefore, the reality of the internal money, the first to bear the brunt, is the world of the young mansion of the world!"
Speaking with seriousness, Liu Ying only gritted her teeth slightly, and her expression was also a little dignified.
"However, when he was a few years old, his father's bitter treasury could not afford to lose money and grain for the war, so he had to melt half a tael of Qin and cast three baht of Han."
"This move, although the Shaofu's face seems to have risen sharply, in fact, the Shaofu's internal money, but it will not retreat; There is not enough money and food in the house, and because of this, it tends to be more and more none. ”
"Nearly two years old, the people of the world know the harm of three baht, and most of them do not use three baht as money to buy goods, but only pay three baht as an oral endowment, so that the income of the internal money is more and more widowed."
Speaking of this, Liu Ying didn't forget to turn her head a little, nodded slightly to Yangcheng Yan, and immediately looked at Xiao He again, and let out a long sigh full of gloom.
"Today, the lonely expedition is imminent, and the autumn harvest is not far away; As soon as the autumn harvest is over, the agricultural tax and oral endowment in Guanzhong will be Xu Xing. ”
"However, if you don't do anything, this year's young mansion is afraid that you should be given tens of thousands of dollars in the mouth of three baht coins."
"Xiao knows quite well: Shaofu is a young man, and he has not entered the Qin money for half a tael at the age of three, so he thinks that he is ······."
Listening to Liu Ying's heavy tone, Yang Chengyan on the side couldn't help but show a slightly weak expression, and immediately lowered his head.
In Yang Chengyan's opinion, although the current bad situation of Shaofu is not caused by himself, as the speaker of Shaofu, he is naturally responsible for it!
Although Liu Ying did not have the slightest intention of reproaching, and even tried his best to improve the situation of Shaofu, Yang Chengyan felt more and more guilty because of this.
Xiao He didn't pay attention to the change in Yang Chengyan's complexion, and when he heard Liu Ying's meaningful words, he only nodded slowly with a calm face, and shook his head and sighed.
"What the family says is true, and it is ······ to the point"
"Shaofu melts half of Qin, and casts three baht of Han, which is a bad government that excavates its own roots and leaves endless disasters."
"How can I be a few years old, the rebellion of the princes with different surnames in the Kanto region has risen one after another, and Your Majesty is so strong and fierce that he can't bear to win the Han Dynasty in the world, but he is still trapped in the ······ of fire and water."
"Alas~"
"Your Majesty's casting of Han three baht is also a helpless ······move for the army to release the money and food needed for the war."
Seeing Xiao He sighing with sorrow, Liu Ying only nodded with a heavy face.
Waited quietly for a while, but never waited for Xiao He's next words, Liu Ying's face was even heavier, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart.
"Hey ······"
"Lone Du said it so clearly, Xiao He, still pretending to be stupid······"
Secretly let out a slight belly slander, Liu Ying didn't go around the bend again, only looked at Xiao He meaningfully for a moment, and then went straight to the point.
"Today, the Shaofu has to carry out official grain and rice, and prepare 'grain storage on behalf of the people' to make profits, although this profit will not last long, but it can also temporarily relieve the emptiness of the government treasury."
"In the spring again, Shaofu from the hands of Mi Jia, a grain merchant in Guanzhong, has a huge amount of grain and rice, and there is still a surplus for the people in Guanzhong, so that today, Shaofu does not have to be allocated by the treasury, and loses the grain and grass needed to quell the rebellion!"
With a resolute face, Liu Ying looked at Xiao He's gaze, only becoming more and more solemn.
"With the official grain and rice, the predicament of the Shaofu is already a little slowed down; and the princes with different surnames in the eastern part of the country, only one person is left in Huainan today, and he is even more alone and will be eliminated soon. ”
"Xiao Xiang also said: minting three baht is a helpless strategy for the princes with different surnames in the Kwantung region, and the treasury is unable to supply the needs of the army."
"That being the case, the emptiness of the treasury of the current government has been slowed down, and the princes with different surnames are about to be eliminated, so what is the reason for the Shaofu to continue to mint three baht?"
With a serious expression, he asked a rhetorical question, and saw Liu Ying sit up straight suddenly, clenched his hand into a fist, and lightly smashed it on the desk in front of him.
"Today's Shaofu no longer needs to mint three baht, and it will be like a benefit."
"On the contrary, the people of the world know the disadvantages of three baht of money, and they pay with three baht of money, and they will lose the money in the house."
"Xiao Xiang thinks that if there is no measure, when he is three or five years old, and the Shaofu 'stores grain on behalf of the people' will no longer be profitable, the government treasury will not be able to return to the emptiness of the past?"
"After many years of entering the Han Dynasty, three baht is thought to be a mouth, and the abolition of the three baht money is not far away?"
Full of solemn words, Liu Ying only hesitated for a moment, then stood up from his seat, solemnly tidied up his clothes, and immediately bowed to Xiao He.
"The pillar stone of Xiao Xiangguo, he once praised his father and said: the first marquis of the founding of the Han Dynasty."
"Today, the young government has paid three baht, and the bitter people have paid three baht and have no income, so that Chang'an, the capital of the Han Dynasty, has not seen half of the wall so far!"
"In the past, the Kanto region was fighting endlessly, and the court had no other way but to sit back and watch the money and three baht bring disaster to the country and the people!"
"However, he is alone and thinks that the son of man is the government of the father, and there is no reason to say what is wrong."
"Today, I am lonely and imminent, and I am worried about Shaofu, and I will not be at peace in the end."
"Wanwang Xiao Xiang, focusing on the community, taking the world as the priority, and focusing on ······"
