Poor and uncertain riverside bones, like a chun's boudoir dreamer!

Pensions have existed since ancient times.

In ancient times, if it was a temporary conscription of peasant miscellaneous soldiers, even the military salary may not be paid, unless a great meritorious service, otherwise the ordinary war death is basically buried anywhere, winning the battle may be the state will give the family a few buckets of brown rice compensation, if it is defeated and retreated, it may be a violent corpse in the wilderness, not to mention the compassionate death, and the death will be in vain.

If it is a soldier similar to a professional soldier, it will basically be recorded after the death of the war, and then the family pension and resettlement will be given according to the rules of the imperial court, but this also depends on the actual war situation at that time.

Like the armies of the ancient Wa Kingdom and Europa, regular army soldiers could enjoy a certain amount of treatment according to their rank, and their families could also be resettled before the war.

And the peasant miscellaneous soldiers who temporarily arrested Ding were much more miserable, they had nothing, they were lucky to live, and they considered themselves unlucky when they died.

The pension standard and reward standard of the Wei State are also different, and they will come according to the rank of the soldiers.

For an ordinary soldier, the pension is about 20 yuan, three horses of silk cloth each, and three additional years later. But this is the standard of the regular army, and it is also the standard of the forbidden army stationed outside the girder.

And what about an ordinary county soldier or a tuntian soldier?

The pension is 18 yuan, plus three horses of silk cloth, and the next two years are only. The standard of pension for those recruits who have been temporarily conscripted is similar.

It is worth mentioning that not only the soldiers who died in battle, but also those who are crippled and chatting with soldiers are also to be compensated. It's such an account, and the entire Great Wei treasury can't bear it!

"Your Majesty, the minister has an idea!" Xu Ji stood up again.

“。”

"There are also a lot of treasures in the treasury, as well as rare treasures moved from Jiankang's treasury. There are countless such as pearls, jade, agate, jade bracelets, red coral, rhinoceros horn, etc., and if you can sell these treasures, you can get tens of thousands of copper coins! ”

Hearing this, Ran Min was stunned for a moment and had no words.

Wei Yan snorted and said, "Lord Xu, you have to speak lightly. We haven't mentioned this method before, but these rare objects are not as good as real money in today's world! It may seem like these treasures are very valuable, but sometimes they are not as cheap as a stone of grain! ”

"Yes! How do you sell it? We have used this method before, and the response is mediocre, those rich and noble families are not rare treasures at all! ”

"People don't lack this!"

Ran Min's brow furrowed, this is a problem.

The treasury is gone, but there are many treasures, and there are countless treasures accumulated in the past dynasties, and any one sold is worth a fortune.

But you can't treat these treasures as a reward, as a pension, right?

Such a precious thing, Mo Ranmin himself is reluctant, and he can't send it if he is willing to give it up, because this messes up the rules!

Just when everyone questioned Xu Ji's advice, Ran Min bowed his head slightly and said, "Xu Ji's idea is good. But there are so many treasures in the treasury that they can be sold? Who will buy it? These are the more critical questions. ”

"This ...... Your Majesty, you can let the hundred officials and the wealthy families of the major clans buy it! ”

Wei Jian raised his eyebrows and said, "Xu Ji, you don't want to rap here!" Talking nonsense, and whether the officials will buy these treasures, those wealthy and illustrious families, which one is not the countless hidden secrets in the family? Will they buy it willingly? The imperial court can't force you to buy and sell, right? ”

"That's it! It is! The ministers all agreed with Wei Yan's words.

It's not okay for this court to buy and sell forcibly, it won't cause people to be resentful, people and gods are angry, and the key is that it also involves their own interests!

"I think Xu Ji's method is a good school" Ran Min doesn't have time to listen to the ministers' nonsense, with this kind of idle time, it is better to think of a few more ways to come out.

"Your Majesty......" The ministers still wanted to admonish, but they were directly rejected by Ran Min.

Ran Min said lightly: "The treasures of the treasury are piled up, and they can't be eaten or sold for money, so what's the use of keeping them?" As for Zhu Qing's concerns, there is no problem of buyers. In this way, we will organize auctions in various places and sell all the treasures of the treasury. I believe there will always be people who want it. ”

"Auction?"

None of the ministers had heard of the auction. The concept of auctions predates the West, but in China, it did not appear until the late Qing Dynasty.

Auction is one of the oldest ways of property rights transfer, originated from the public bidding behavior of human beings after they have surplus products, in order to transfer their surplus goods, people initially transferred or sold their products, rather than can specialize in auction activities, only this way of bidding and buying and selling is convenient and successful, which arouses people's interest and more attention.

The situation of married women in the annual auction held in the ancient city of Babylon. At the end of the second century AD, auction schools appeared in ancient Rome

"Your Majesty, I don't know what this auction will be?" Cui Hao was puzzled, so he asked stubbornly.

"Auction is a way of bidding, and the highest bidder wins. Its particularity lies in the fact that the auction must meet certain conditions: first, the price is not fixed, and the final commodity is obtained by the highest bidder; Second, there must be more than two buyers, and only then can there be competition; Third, we must abide by the principles of openness, fairness, and justice. ”

Ran Min has to understand it so well, there is nothing that the ministers can't understand.

But Cui Hao still had doubts: "Your Majesty, the idea of this auction is good. But those who can afford to participate in the auction are all from wealthy and wealthy families, and they have a lot of private secrets in their homes, so they are afraid that there is no shortage of such treasures. And many ordinary people do not have the ability to bid. ”

"I've thought about that, too."

Ran Min shook his head and said, "It seems that you still don't know the true meaning of the auction. Throughout the ages, the most taboo for a monarch is that his subjects form a party for personal gain, and the party is the same as the other, so the subjects do not dare to hold large gatherings, especially the officials and merchants, Shinong and businessmen, and the merchants have a low status and have no opportunity to contact with officials. But this auction can allow people from all walks of life to communicate, so that those businessmen who have no way to go will not rush to it? ”

Hearing this, Cui Hao's eyes couldn't help but light up: "Your Majesty Shengming! ”

In ancient times, the status of merchants was the lowest, so low that it could not be lower, Shi agriculture and commerce, merchants ranked at the end, three religions and nine streams (emperors, scribes, officials, doctors, monks, soldiers, farmers, craftsmen, merchants), from respect to humility, merchants ranked at the end of the nine streams.

During the Han Dynasty, it was stipulated that merchants must be registered in the city, and they were not allowed to wear silk clothes and were not allowed to be officials.

During the Jin Dynasty, it was stipulated that merchants must wear two shoes, one black and one white, and the hats on their heads should clearly write the names of the goods they sell, which was actually an insult to the identity of merchants.

During the Tang and Ming dynasties, although peasants were allowed to wear good clothes, merchants were still not allowed to wear silk clothes, and it was stipulated that they were not allowed to wear red and purple clothes.

It can be seen from this that the status of businessmen in the ninth-rate ranking is very low!

But at this time, Wei Hu jumped out and objected: "Your Majesty, by all means!" ”

"What did Wei Qing say?" Ran Min's brows furrowed.

"Your Majesty, the business of a merchant is a cheap business. As the saying goes, there is no treachery, no business, no business, these businessmen are all open-minded and unprofitable guys. Without the support of the government, these businessmen are so rich, if these businessmen are allowed to catch the line of the government, then the officials and businessmen will collude and prey on the people, wouldn't it be a disaster? ”

The ministers all agreed with Wei Yan's words: "Yes! Your Majesty, what Lord Wei said must not be ignored. If this auction promotes the collusion between officials and businessmen, it will be the people who will be harmed! ”

"Your Majesty, please don't hold an auction! Even if an auction is to be held, it should be held between officials and scholars, and those profiteers must not be given the opportunity to collude with corrupt officials and corrupt officials and cause trouble! ”

"Think twice, Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, Ran Min said with a cold face: "The country needs money. Now apart from what these merchants can take out, can you take it out? Are the nobles willing to take it out? I don't care about anything else, the money must be in place! ”

Wei Yan stubbornly said: "Your Majesty, in fact, there is not only such an extremely gambling method. Your Majesty can borrow money from the scholars, and I believe that with the prestige of the imperial court, the scholars will definitely be willing. ”

National debt?

"That's one way. Anything else? ”

"Uh......" Wei Yan racked his brains and thought about it, and said: "Your Majesty, how rich the Shi clan is, more than ten generations or even dozens of generations of Rao have accumulated, and there is countless money and food, no other place, even if it is the money of the Yingchuan Shi clan, it is enough to fill the treasury." ”

"Are you letting me and the court be in debt?" Ran Min said with a glare.

"Don't dare!"

"Is there any other way?"

At this time, Wang Meng stood up and lowered his hand: "Your Majesty, at present, it is not only the issue of issuing the rewards of the soldiers and the pensions of the fallen soldiers, but also the salaries of the officials, the food and salary of the soldiers, and the disasters in various places, all of which require a lot of investment from the imperial court!" Fortunately, the soldiers' rewards, pensions and military salaries may not be issued for the time being, in the form of bonds, the imperial court can take credit first, and then reissue them in the future! ”
