Chapter 576: Listi Association

"How much?" Meng Fu and Meng Tian said in unison, they both suspected that something was wrong with their ears.

Meng Yi was not surprised at all in the face of the shock of the two, and his expression was even more surprised at that time.

"The mine of more than 20 billion silver, but now no one except Mr. knows about it, and even the people of Dongying want to know about it for a thousand years.

He said that at that time, Toei was in the Edo period, and it had been mined for more than 400 years." Meng Yi explained.

"Oh my God. So much silver, does Your Majesty know?" Meng Fu was the first to ask.

Meng Yi shook his head and said, "I don't know about this, maybe I don't know, maybe I don't know, maybe Zhang Han or the princess told Your Majesty."

But the gentleman said that more silver is not the better, as long as stability is enough, otherwise too much silver will only cause disaster in the market."

"What do you mean by that?" Meng Fu asked inexplicably.

"Father." Meng Yi explained, "Originally, one tael of silver could buy ten stone of rice, but there are not many people who can afford to buy that much rice at once.

Even if everyone has money, they don't spend it like this, but little by little.

But the court suddenly mined a thousand taels of silver, and all of this money went into the hands of the people at once, or was rewarded by His Majesty with three armies."

The soldiers suddenly had an extra sum of money in their hands, and they were sure to take it out and spend it.

If there is suddenly more silver in the market, then the price will rise, and one tael of silver can buy ten stone of rice, but now it can only buy eight stone, and the more the inflow, the higher the price of grain.

Of course, not only the price of food, but also other commodities will increase in price as a result.

"Isn't that an empty treasure mountain that can't be?" Meng Fu said.

"No, as long as you don't have to do business." Meng Yi said, "The price of goods will increase for sure, and relatively, when the price of goods rises, the wages of workers will also increase.

Therefore, if we want to develop business, if we want to develop rapidly, we first need people.

My father said that at present, the population of Dongying is only one or two thousand, but many people in the land of Baiyue have fled to Dongying to escape the war.

Now this group of people has now become the people of Dongying, no, they are all the people of Daqin.

In order to prevent them from escaping again, my father gave them land, potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes, rice and other advanced grains, as well as a lot of farm tools, and opened a wasteland with everyone.

However, even so, there are only tens of thousands of people in Dongying at present.

The only way to do this is to relocate the population and send people from each country to Dongying, and as long as we treat everyone equally, I believe it will not be long before the imperial court will be able to completely control Dongying."

Meng Fu bowed his head and said, "Okay, leave this matter to you to deal with yourself, although the eldest father is old and doesn't understand many things, he can still sit in the Meng family.

Say no more, come, drink."

"Drink." Meng Tian and Meng Yi said at the same time.

That night, they came to a non-drunk home, and when they went to the morning court the next day, the two of them were still full of alcohol, so that the people next to them covered their noses.

Ying Zheng only frowned slightly at this and didn't say anything.

Li Si spoke at this time: "Back to Your Majesty, now that there are hundreds of orders for new farm tools, it is necessary to set up a special workshop to produce new farm tools, and Wei Chen suggests building a new workshop outside the city to specialize in the production of new farm tools."

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Since the list has been received, then we must hand over the new farming tools to the other party as soon as possible.

The new farm tools are related to the national conditions, and they should be controlled by the imperial court, but it is easy for the court to control, and it is difficult for the new farm tools to be updated.

Therefore, I decided to hand over the new farming tools to the private sector. It's still the old rule, anyone can participate, the one with the highest price wins, and one share of the profit belongs to the emperor.

Li Si, you are responsible for this matter, and the technology is in charge of the Tiangong Bureau until the workshop is established."

"No." Li Si responded, "Wechen still has something to do."

"Quasi-play." Ying Zheng said with a smile.

"Yesterday, the imperial court just posted a notice that each village can set up a rural collective association, and this policy is very beneficial to the imperial court and the people.

But the people don't understand, and many of them are not yet enlightened, and will only blindly follow the trend. Once you blindly follow the trend, you may not get any benefits, but will harm them.

Therefore, Wechen proposes to set up 10 pilot projects, each of which has a certain distance, and develop rural collective associations according to the actual situation."

"Quasi-play." Ying Zheng said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Si said again, "Back to Your Majesty, Weichen has another suggestion."

"What advice?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Returning to Your Majesty." Li Si said again, "Once the rural collective association is established, it definitely needs a complete set of management and professional personnel.

Therefore, Wechen suggested setting up a department dedicated to the association to recruit talents."

"Your Majesty." Feng Quji said, "It's a good thing to recruit talents, but at present, there are talents everywhere, and the household department has too many talents at once, so should the other five departments also recruit talents?"

Ying Zheng said, "Indeed, there is a need for talents everywhere now. That's why I'm going to set up a ministry of education to train people.

This will be discussed later. Rural collective union is more important, what kind of talent do you need, how much do you need, do you have any ideas?"

"Yes." "Since the rural collectives are for the benefit of the people, they are doing business, developing aquaculture, and so on.

Then, first of all, they need businessmen, or people who have a relationship with businessmen, and to put it bluntly, they can treat the villagers of the rural collective associations as workers, and the businessmen give money.

Of course, the two are a cooperative relationship, not a real part-time job.

For example, a businessman who runs a restaurant at home needs a lot of ingredients every day, so in order to save costs, he can go to a rural collective association to buy goods.

In the cooperative, not only grain is grown, but also all kinds of vegetables, even pigs and cows, and they are raised.

You can even buy technology, raise fish, raise crabs, and raise all kinds of poultry, don't be afraid if you can't raise it well, you can ask the court for help, and the household department will help them solve it."

"Does Tobe have the strength?" Feng Qujian asked.

"There is no household, but the farmer does." Li Si said with a smile, "The farmer will be included in the household department and will be responsible for agricultural affairs.

Feng Xiang, agriculture is not only about farming, but also about breeding pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, fish and other poultry."

Li Si's words seemed to be for Feng Quji, but in fact, he was for the Manchu Dynasty civil and military.

Feng Quji actually knew about this for a long time, he didn't go to Zhaojia Village for nothing.

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, and said, "You are responsible for this matter, first test the ten villages to see if the people you recruit can take on such a big thing."

"No." Li Si replied excitedly and loudly.
