It's not something that can be said in one sentence.

To develop a place, it must be comprehensive, and it must also think about the future, Zhao Hanzhang told Shile, "Minerals need to accumulate over tens of millions of years to form, and it takes longer than mature wood, so it is considered a non-renewable resource." ”

Like a basin of ice water poured down, Shi Le was not convinced, "Who said that?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang glanced at him and said, "I said it with Fu Shangshu." ”

Shile was speechless for a moment.

Since it is a non-renewable resource, how to harvest and how to use it are all discussions, not something that can be decided in a moment.

However, this was still a big surprise for Schler, and he began to inquire about the prices of various ores.

Minerals belong to the state and are developed by the imperial court, and as a local yamen, they also have benefits.

Mining requires people, transportation, trading, and even related industries can be located in the local area, isn't this the economy?

Shi Le finally didn't feel the bitter cold of Youzhou, "Mr. is right, Youzhou is indeed a treasure land, not only a large number of salt mines, but also coal mines, iron mines, look carefully, maybe there are copper mines, silver mines and gold mines." ”

If you can find copper, silver and gold directly, wouldn't it be directly profitable?

Oh, by the way, he doesn't have the right to mint money, and the minerals also belong to the imperial court.

Shile regretted for a moment.

Zhang Bin said with a smile: "General, I inquired about the salary set by the imperial court for absenteeism, which is higher than that of ordinary workers outside. ”

"They will always spend money when they make money, and the merchants in Youzhou have to pay taxes when they make money, and the richer the people, the richer our local yamen will be, which is not much different from making money directly."

Wei Jue also thought so, after returning from Gewusi, he directly found the post station, and asked Shi Le and Zhao Hanzhang to fight for their rights, "It is best to fight for the right to mine minerals, if you can't fight for it, you should fight for the right to manage absenteeism, the lower officials heard that there are workers' unions in the people, which are dedicated to fighting for the rights and interests of employees who sell themselves to work in the world, and there are also farmers' unions, which are for the rights and interests of farmers who farm the land in the world. ”

Shi Le: "Didn't the emperor send Yuan Li to set it up for the purpose of collecting information. ”

Wei Jue shook his head, "The purpose of the trade union is naturally more than this, but more is for the imperial court to participate in another form to fight for the rights and interests of the trade unionists." ”

He said: "The employment union is naturally to fight for the rights and interests of the slaves in the world, and the peasant workers' union is to fight for the rights and interests of farmers. ”

Zhang Bin praised: "General, what the Wei County Guard said is very true, and a certain seconded it." ”

Shi Le couldn't sit still, "Then I'll enter the palace now?" ”

But he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to fight for it alone, so his eyes slid between the two, and then grabbed Wei Jue, "Shubao, you can enter the palace with me." ”

Wei Jue: ......

He's just a county guard, shouldn't this kind of thing be an assassin to talk to the emperor?

But Shi Le dragged him up and pulled him directly to the palace.

The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households are arguing over the mining of minerals, and both ministries believe that they should be in charge of their own affairs.

Minerals, such as natural affairs, should be under the control of the Ministry of Industry, but the Ministry of Household believes that the three minerals of gold, silver and copper are basically used for coinage, which should be managed by the Ministry of Households.

Zhao Hanzhang didn't think this needed to be discussed, and asked rhetorically, "When the minerals are mined, don't they still have to be sent to the Mint Division of the Ministry of Industry for casting?" ”

Zhao Ming immediately said: "So in order to facilitate management, the Money Minting Division should also be under the management of the household department." ”

This is excessive, Qiu Wu immediately looked at Fu Tinghan, and shouted aggrievedly: "Lang Jun......"

Fu Tinghan, who had been silent, finally said: "The Department of Minerals and Coinage should still be managed by the Ministry of Industry, whether it is mining or coinage, technology needs to be continuously improved. ”

Zhao Ming: "What's wrong with cross-departmental cooperation? It is just right to strengthen the exchanges between the two ministries, whether it is the Ministry of Industry or the Ministry of Households, the officials need to be transferred, and it is just right for everyone to strengthen exchanges. ”

Everyone is waiting for Zhao Hanzhang to decide.

Zhao Hanzhang: "Follow the old system. ”

As soon as the word was settled, everyone stopped arguing.

As soon as Shi Le pulled Wei Jue to arrive, Zhao Ming and the others just grabbed him to discuss the mining of minerals.

It is not difficult to pull up a team to open a mine, but the difficulty is how to protect the rights and interests of the mines and miners, how to balance the relationship between the local yamen and the imperial court, and how to ensure the follow-up of the minerals.

Where does absenteeism come from?

Where do you go after opening the mine, and what to do with the abandoned mine?

Man and nature should be in harmony, not to fish all the water, should a mineral be completely mined into a wasted mine and then used for other livelihoods, or leave a part of it?

Even the surrounding environmental impact of mining must be taken into account.

This is an era when a child is born to plant a few trees for him (her), and when he grows up to marry a daughter-in-law or marry, he has to cut down trees to make boxes and beds.

When you go up the mountain to cut down trees, you should also harvest one kind at a time, and you will pay back as much as you harvest from the land, so that you can last a long time if you go in and out.

So, what are they going to do with the earth when they extract a lot of ore from the ground?

Mining will have a very bad impact on the plants on the surface and the surrounding land, and the treatment of minerals will also have an impact on the air, so they must do a good job of follow-up treatment.

Shi Le was dragged to a meeting for a day, and he almost didn't remember the purpose of entering the palace, but Wei Jue reminded him before he remembered, "Your Majesty, the minister wants to ask the Ministry of Industry to hand over the mining of Youzhou Coal Mine to Youzhou." ”

Zhao Hanzhang: "You can cooperate. ”

Shi Le didn't expect her to be so straightforward, and after being stunned for a moment, he asked, "How to cooperate?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "Naturally, it is conducive to the cooperation of Youzhou, I have said before that these minerals are the treasures given by God to the people of Youzhou." ”

Wei Jue was overjoyed, "General, Your Majesty means that Youzhou and the Ministry of Industry will jointly develop it. "Even Youzhou's right to speak is still above the Ministry of Industry.

This is a measure that is beneficial to Youzhou.

Shi Le's face was solemn, and he asked rhetorically, "Why is Your Majesty so tolerant of Youzhou?" ”

If he were the emperor, he would definitely not hand over the mining rights to Youzhou, or even to the Ministry of Industry, but to the royal family.

It is up to the royal family to earn this money and master this weapon.

Zhao Hanzhang asked rhetorically: "Isn't Youzhou my land, and aren't the people of Youzhou my people?" ”

Shi Le pondered for a moment and then lowered his eyes and said: "Your Majesty has a broad mind, and the people of Youzhou thank Your Majesty. ”

Zhao Hanzhang said: "If the people are rich, the country will be rich, and if the people are strong, the country will be strong, I not only hope that Youzhou will be rich and strong, but also other states and counties will be rich and strong, so that the country can be strong." ”

Power should be concentrated in the central government, so that government decrees can reach the localities and the four sides will not cause chaos.

But profit must be widely spread throughout the world, and it cannot be held in the hands of only one person and one place.
