As soon as these words came out, even Jiuqing, who had seen the wind and waves, and even Yu Qian, his expression became extremely exciting.

Everyone thought they had misheard.

Just kidding, right?

His Majesty went so far as to allow private individuals to mix in mining.

This is no ordinary thing.

It is a strategic event related to the stability of the country!

Not to mention coal, at present, it is only needed for the use of steam engines, and it is already needed in the winter in China, so it is not an important strategic material, but gold, silver, copper and iron ore is a serious state-controlled material.

As with salt, private participation is prohibited by law.

The mining of copper and iron ore by private remnants means that a large amount of copper and iron will flow into the people, and these things can directly threaten the notice of imperial power and bring resources for careerists to rebel.

Yu Qian immediately said, "The minister thinks it's inappropriate!"

On the establishment of the General Political Envoy Department and the General Capital Division, Zhu Jianji has never given Yu Qian face, under normal circumstances, if Zhu Jianji refutes it again at this moment, there will inevitably be a rift between the monarch and the minister.

But Zhu Jianji knew that Yu Qian was not that kind of person.

Therefore, he smiled and said: "Yu Shaobao don't worry, I have my own plans, although the matter of mining and refining mine resources in the Indochina Peninsula can allow private commercial banks to come in and participate, but from the process of mining, refining, transportation, and use, the government will supervise and plan every step, and these materials will never be allowed to appear in any place where it should not appear."

He added: "And now there is still a big gap in the steel needed by the country, even if it is private mining and refining steel, it can only be sold directly to the Ministry of Industry, which will distribute it uniformly, and the same is true for gold, silver and copper mines, private commercial banks are only responsible for mining and refining, and the final finished product still has to be collected by the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households."

When Yu Qian heard it, this seemed reasonable.

I won't talk about it.

When Lu Yu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, heard this, he secretly wondered why the private trading house was working for the country for nothing, so he asked: "Weichen has something unclear, if this operation is followed, where will the profits of the private trading houses come from, without profits, they will not go to the Indochina Peninsula to participate in mining."

This is actually asked on behalf of the elite class.

Because of the real implementation of this policy, almost all the magnates in the Ming and opposition will be moved.

Zhu Jianji said: "Manpower. With the support of cheap labor in the Indochina Peninsula, the cost of mining will be relatively low, and the difference will be made after the mineral materials mined and refined by the commercial banks are sold to the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households. Moreover, this is a thing that lasts for tens or hundreds of years, and it is a typical example of a long history of small profits and quick turnover, and it is probably an incomparably huge benefit accumulated over the years, plus it can also use sea trade to transport local specialty materials, which is also a money-making business."

The ministers suddenly realized.

The sound of His Majesty's abacus in Gyeonggi was heard by the people of Guangxi!

On the one hand, the imperial court saved money for investing in mining, and on the other hand, it could buy a large number of mining materials at a low price, and His Majesty also gave *** a piece of cake so that it could be taken out and bargained with *** during the land reform.

Three withered birds with one stone!

But don't say, Your Majesty's proposal is indeed full of temptation, mining is not a hammer deal, it is a long-term operation, and Your Majesty said that the Indochina Peninsula is the back garden of the Ming Dynasty, which means that you can squeeze manpower as much as possible, and hire workers to mine mines at the lowest price, even if a worker earns five taels of silver a month for the commercial house, it is also a huge wealth accumulated over decades.

What's more, after the mining and refining of mine resources and selling them to the imperial court, there should be a lot of profits, far more than five taels, and if a few more mines are opened to form a scale......

The profits are enormous.

Feasible!

Lu Yu immediately said: "Your Majesty's strategizing and planning are reasonable and appropriate, and Wechen is willing to give full support to Your Majesty's policy, but Wechen still thinks that the Ministry of Industry, as a state department, should also invest manpower and financial resources to operate those mines with huge reserves in Indochina."

Readers, pay attention to face.

It can't be too ugly to eat.

It is still necessary to drag the Ministry of Industry in, so as not to be criticized and say that you Lu Yu is crazy about money.

Zhu Jianji shook his head, "The Ministry of Industry is only responsible for the mining of gold, silver and copper mines, and coal and iron ore are divided by private firms.

And then......

At that time, even if the world's science and technology develop, the people of Indochina will wake up and get rid of the colony, and the Ming Dynasty will suck enough blood from Indochina and leave a mess for it.

In the future, you can sell copper, iron and coal mines to it, and continue to suck blood!

The ministers were silent for a while.

Because if you agree to Your Majesty's policy, and the private trading houses formed by the powerful go to Indochina to obtain huge benefits, it means that you will have to make concessions to Your Majesty in the future land reform.

Land is still the core interest of the elite landlord group.

It's not a good choice.

But Lu Yu saw it very thoroughly, land reform is His Majesty's imperative strategy, and now His Majesty has the military and political power, and the monarchy is flourishing, which is the peak moment of imperial power.

It is simply impossible for the elite and the landlord group to prevent land reform.

Instead, he will be killed by His Majesty.

Since it is the mantis arm as a car, and His Majesty has given other ways to replenish blood, why not get off the donkey down the slope, as long as you can make money, do you control the land?

Unimportant!

Don't forget, Your Majesty is now the richest man in the Ming Dynasty, and his commercial bank in Fuzhou in charge of Bai Xiu, the power company in charge of Lu Chunjing, the Royal Bank of Daming, and the Donggong Military Research Institute have all brought huge benefits to His Majesty.

The permanent bicycle company that is about to be put into production, and the Hang's Construction Group, which is fully ready to operate, are likely to become profiteering industries.

Your Majesty's money, hardly through the land!

The powerful and landlord groups can also follow the path of His Majesty, and there is no technology to buy from His Majesty, and they are reluctant to let their children trap the wolf.

This is from the point of view of private interests.

From the perspective of national interests, if the population is booming, if the problem of land annexation is not resolved, the people will not be able to get rich, and if the people are not rich, the country will weaken sooner or later.

Therefore, both public and private, Lu Yu supports His Majesty's initiative.

So Lu Yu took the lead and said, "Your Majesty Shengming!"

And Dong Fang, the secretary of the Criminal Department who had just been reused by His Majesty, had a good relationship with Lu Yu, and he also wanted to repay His Majesty's reuse of the Criminal Department, so he immediately seconded it.

Hang Min and Bai Gyu are even more imperial.

Nature seconded.

When the other courtiers looked at it, four of Jiuqing agreed, and the others disagreed, that is, they did not give His Majesty face, and His Majesty's move was really tempting.

The matter of land, let's talk about it later, first make the money in front of you.

So they seconded the proposal.
