"Teacher," Huang Zicheng said, "Is there anything wrong here?" ”

He Xi said: "Currency is the medium of exchange, and now the people of Liaodong buy and sell, and many times use grain. Therefore, there is still the possibility of tapping the potential of Liaodong's grain. ”

Ye Wang coughed twice and said, "My lord, it is not easy to get food from the hands of the people below, and it is a big thing if you are not careful." ”

He Xi smiled bitterly. How he didn't know. The surplus grain collection system is such a famous system. Anyone who has studied history knows. He Xi knew that because of this incident, a series of situations were caused. I understand more that ordinary people are obsessed with food. Really find a way to collect the surplus food of the people below. One is not careful, and it really makes a big mess.

At this moment, He Xi also has some understanding of the intentions of the founder of this system back then. Drink poison to quench thirst. To live first, and then to talk about anything else.

He Xi said: "Forcibly requisitioning grain, this thing naturally cannot be done. But it is possible to substitute food by other means. First of all, all the officials and soldiers in Liaodong will no longer be paid food. And this next fall, all the grain will go into the official warehouse. Unified use. ”

Ye Wang said: "This can't work. In this case, there will be trouble. ”

He Xi said: "Distribute food stamps." Different from the elderly and weak men and women, they mainly eat three meals a day. Food stamps are issued. This number is about three stones per person. Put it in the granary of the imperial court, and everyone received food with food stamps. Since then, various bills have been issued to all soldiers. ”

"What bill?" Ye Wang asked with some confusion.

He Xi said: "Food stamps, coal stamps, wood stamps, water stamps, farm tool stamps, what do the people need." Just send anything. Directly fold the work, calculate everyone's labor. Directly convert the work into various tickets. ”

He Xi thought about it, and there was only this way.

There are bills to connect the production side with the demand side. The products at the production end are directly connected to the people and distributed as the people's remuneration. Because He Xi has improved production efficiency. Therefore, there is not much shortage of this.

He Xi's ability to pay will be greatly increased.

And now in industrial construction, the most important thing is manpower. It's artificial. Cashing out products directly from the production side.

The so-called work directly corresponds to the division of labor in the era of planned economy. It is a very old unit of measurement, and in general, it refers to the amount of earthwork. How many square meters of soil are dug up is counted as a worker. Or how much square earth is transported to another place is considered a worker.

Approximately equal.

In this way, the cycle of production, sales, and reproduction is completed.

Of course, there is a hidden method. He Xi didn't want to use this method. But sometimes you have to use it. These bills have the characteristics of paper money. So, they can be issued in addition. It would give him extra wiggle room on hand.

It's just that in this case, if you can, you won't do it. After all, treasure money is a lesson from the past. He Xi has been in Daming for so long. I know one thing best, that is, there are naturally stupid people in the world. And even in absolute terms. From modern people are smarter than ancient people. But if we talk about a group of people who really mix in the tip of the people. It's about the same in IQ. Not a single idiot, but one by one fell into over-hair. He Xi didn't feel that he was better than them.

I could only be stupid. Don't be foolish.

"It seems that there are some similarities with the quotation of the Song Dynasty." Huang Zicheng said secretly in his heart.

He Xi's method is actually not clever. In essence, it is as if the factory does not pay wages and directly stuffs what it produces into the workers' mode. Just a little bit bigger. And the scale is not big enough. Even bigger is the so-called planned economy.

It can be transferred to industrial investment with the lowest cost and lowest consumption.

Of course. These alone are not enough to build and maintain the industrial system of Liaodong. It is also necessary to find more capital and profits from the outside.

The quotation method of the Song Dynasty is actually not the same as the ticket method proposed by He Xi. The former is a special monopoly system. There are two kinds of direct monopoly and licensing, in short, even the tax income of the Song Dynasty in this regard directly exceeds the positive tax.

But there is still an essential difference between the two.

"Teacher. It's a clever solution. It's just that the disciple has three worries. Huang Zicheng said.

He Xi attaches great importance to Huang Zicheng's opinions, and Huang Zicheng has been a pro-people official all year round. In terms of experience, he is even more sophisticated than He Xi, and he has a good opinion. There must be a target.

He Xi said: "Say it." I'd like to hear from you, too. ”

Huang Zicheng said: "The teacher has set up a new system in Liaodong, does Nanjing really have no ideas?" ”

It was not He Xi who answered him, but Yao Guangxiao.

Yao Guangxiao's talent is above the power scheme, and in the matter in front of him, he can only stare dryly. On top of such an important meeting, it is more about auditing. However, Huang Zicheng's sentence talks about Yao Guangxiao's core area. Yao Guangxiao said: "Please rest assured of this. There is no problem with the decision. And today, the wind is surging, and the Qingzhang case in Nanjing is in full swing. Within a year or two, I am not surprised that the officials in Nanjing will be replaced. At this time, no one cares what happened in Liaodong? Just get things done. Nothing is a problem. ”

Although Yao Guangxiao's words were not thorough. But the following words, these people know. That's if things don't work well. It's time to deal with the crime of being too much. I don't care about this one.

Huang Zicheng said: "The second question. It's that the people need a lot of things. Seven things to open the door, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea. What a needle thread brain. It's impossible to cover all kinds of bits and pieces. ”

He Xi was stunned for a moment, was silent for a moment, and said: "We don't need to provide everything, Liaodong is originally a remote place, and it is normal for some things to be in short supply." Just provide most of the necessities of life. For those things that are too little in demand, let them buy them privately. I just used the bills, and I didn't say I wouldn't let them buy anything. So be it. We can set up two main stores in Niuzhuang and Lushun to sell all kinds of things. Monopoly to Liaodong guards. ”

"No, that's fine."

Huang Zicheng said: "The key to this matter lies in the comparison between the ticket and the real thing. For example, grain, one stone of rice, and one stone of rice tickets need to correspond one-to-one. ”

Huang Zicheng actually has something to say, what he is worried about is the problem of over-issuance.

He Xi said: "I will definitely let them correspond." Absolutely no problem. ”

Huang Zicheng's knowledge in this area is still shallow. He didn't know that even in the case of over-hair, the two could be equalized. However, Huang Zicheng has this meaning, and he has already surpassed many officials.

Minimum risk awareness is sufficient.

Huang Zicheng hesitated for a moment and did not continue to talk about this topic.

In fact, he has another consciousness, that is, corruption. Or to manipulate prices to make huge profits.

Huang Zicheng is at a loss for the future. But I am very familiar with the history of the past. The history of the Song Dynasty taught him that this kind of system was difficult to last. In fact, the Song Dynasty inherited five generations. What can be sold at the beginning, all is used for monopoly. But in the end a conclusion was reached. Some things are done by the imperial court itself. He wanted all the profits to go to the imperial court, but in the end he couldn't get one out of ten, but he sold the monopoly to the merchants. The court and the merchant split the account fifty-fifty, but they were able to get it.

Why?

Of course, there are officials who are not familiar with the fighting in the mall. But in essence, it is still a problem of corruption. Many people spoil good things in order to gain benefits for themselves.

Fifty-five in the account. Businessmen in order to maintain their own interests unchanged. The benefits distributed to the imperial court may not be true. But the overall numbers are bound to not change. At least you won't lose the court's money. But officials are different.

For many officials, the money of the imperial court is not my money.

It's just that saying this to He Xi now can't solve the problem. Second, it almost completely refuted He Xi's plan. Most importantly, he has no solution to what is in front of him. Then it's a poor scenario. No, it doesn't.

Let Huang Zicheng be in He Xi's position, the only way is to temporarily recuperate and recuperate. Wait until your savings are enough. Start again.

That was many years later.

Huang Zicheng himself felt that it was too slow.
