"Isn't this a ...... to take people as animals" Ru Taisu seemed to be a little unbearable when he heard that he was going to buy Japanese people as serfs.

"In the pre-Yuan period, didn't our Chinese people live like livestock? Since the people of the Wa Kingdom didn't take the people seriously, let's see, it's good to buy them to farm for our Daming. Lao Zhu said. We are Ming, don't we also have countless tenants? It's just a nice name, and they didn't do the same thing as this serf? ”

"Wouldn't it be better to be a slave in our Ming Dynasty than to be a grass farmer in the barren land of the Japanese country?"

Ru Taisu bowed: "Yes, the old minister is pedantic." It's just that Your Majesty, if you take these Japanese people as slaves for generations, they will be oppressed, and you are afraid that they will change for a long time. ”

"If you want to come to the old minister, you should focus on education."

Then they scattered the widows and settled them in various places, so that they could not join together. It was strictly forbidden for the common people to buy and sell Han Chinese as slaves and maids, but on the contrary, private merchants were allowed to buy and sell Japanese slaves. These people have been in Daming for a long time, and they have naturally been enlightened by my Daming. After three generations, you can go to slavery, and after five generations, you will be allowed to take the examination for official examinations. Lao Zhu said.

After a few generations, you can become a Ming person, such a policy can undoubtedly greatly alleviate the resistance of the Japanese people, Ru Taisu thought about it, and finally bowed and said: "This benevolent government is also, Your Majesty Shengming." ”

After all, he didn't really pity the Japanese people.

Zhu Su was secretly frightened on the side: although Lao Zhu's method made up for the loopholes in the Japanese slave policy on the surface, he was also praised as "benevolent government" by an old-fashioned scholar like Ru Taisu. However, the phrase "allowing private merchants to buy and sell Japanese slaves" will inevitably set off a terrifying slave trade in the Japanese country. Since then, the Ming merchants will flock to the Japanese to hunt and buy Japanese slaves, and the Japanese can be said to have no peace.

But...... What does this have to do with this king? Zhu Su shrugged in his heart.

"It's just Your Highness, the old minister has something unclear. To hunt and buy slaves...... Can't you use real money? Why do you have to use treasure money? Song Lian asked Zhu Sudao. He came from the troubled times of the former Yuan Dynasty and deeply experienced the bad effects of the corruption of the former Yuan banknote law. Previously, Li Shanchang suggested that the imperial court issue banknotes to alleviate the lack of money, and he had a slight resignation, at this time, the imperial court because of commercial taxes, the state was gradually full, and now there are Yingzhou gold and silver mountains in hand, to say that the banknotes will be issued again, he is subconsciously a little worried.

"Real money, naturally, you can also buy Japanese slaves. It's just that in this way, the gold and silver that I have worked so hard to mine in the Ming Dynasty will inevitably flow into the hands of the Japanese and powerful people. Zhu Su said. In this way, if the power of the Japanese daimyo grows, it is inevitable that they will have a second heart in the future. ”

"It is still based on gold and silver to issue treasure banknotes, and ordered the Ming Dynasty to use Ming treasure banknotes when trading with the surrounding vassals and countries, which is more secure. One is to prevent a large amount of gold and silver from flowing to foreign countries, and the other is that when all countries use my Ming treasure banknotes to trade, my Ming is equivalent to holding the economic lifeline of all countries. ”

"Master Song imagines, if a certain country starts a war with my Ming Dynasty in the future, my Ming Dynasty can directly cut off contact with it. As a result, the treasure money held by the whole country will no longer be of use, and the country will immediately fall into turmoil. Even if you want to temporarily change to gold and silver, you will inevitably face a run on a large number of merchants and magnates holding treasure money. ”

"Even if they pinch their noses and still admit the treasure money, but the number of banknotes in their country is limited after all, and my Ming Dynasty will no longer continue to supply, and they will still have social turmoil if they have insufficient money in their country. Both left and right are going to be turbulent. ”

"Therefore, if you want the society to be stable, you must not oppose my Ming Dynasty."

"This is called a soldier who surrenders before a fight."

In this era, the benefits of building a bank and implementing treasure money are naturally more than that, Zhu Su only said this, and Song Lian, Zhu Biao, and even Lao Zhu were all moved.

How could they have imagined that a mere treasure banknote could be so useful?

"If it can be used for this purpose, this treasure will have to be issued." Liu Bowen said with a beard. Treasure money does have drawbacks, but if you can use treasure money to clamp other countries, it will already be more beneficial than disadvantageous.

"We have already discussed this matter with the boss and the fifth, this treasure money has a lot of benefits, and it must be issued. Our Ming Dynasty's treasure banknotes are different from those of the previous yuan, and they are linked to real money and silver, so as not to cause indiscriminate issuance. However, how the banknote law works needs to be carefully considered. And the fifth child, is it really going to cost a lot of money to buy a Japanese slave? The money of Sado Gold Mountain and Iwami Silver Mountain, we haven't covered it yet......" Speaking of spending money, Lao Zhu was a little distressed.

"Dad, I told you what wealth is. There is more real money, which does not mean that Daming has really become rich. If such a large amount of money is spent entirely at home, it will inevitably cause inflation. At that time, the goods will be discounted, and in fact, it will be my people who will be damaged. ”

"It will be good to use this money in the Wa Kingdom. The exchange of gold and silver for labor is the most accounting transaction. We can use these labors to produce real wealth for Daming, and that is the real wealth. Daming is advancing day by day, and now is not the time to pick and choose......"

"You, who are you picking at the rope? In that case, it's up to you. First of all, we will set up the banknote law and this money bank called the bank...... Jiujiang, the matter of establishing the ticket number, we are ready to hand it over to you, can we? ”

Li Jinglong was taken aback, and then he realized why these ministers wanted him to stay with him. Hearing this, he hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Yes, the minister will live up to His Majesty's high expectations!" ”

Li Jiujiang is good at calculations, and he is involved in everything, so it is very suitable for him to be the president of the Royal Bank.

"It's a pity that our gold has just been put into storage, and it's time to use it to issue money again." Lao Zhu's face still couldn't hide the pain on his face. "Old Five, if you want to issue money, the boats of gold that were transported into the warehouse before are not enough."

"When will Sappy's rear army return? At that time, how much gold will be shipped back? ”

"General Lan Yu is clearing the remnants of the Japanese State, and if you count it, it will be this February. More than 10,000 prisoners of war have been deposited in the Sado Gold Mine for gold, and roughly calculated, hundreds of thousands of ...... should be able to be transported."

……

More than forty days later, Lan Yu led 10,000 men of the rear army back to Yingtian. This time, the army did not hide it, and it went straight to Yingtian. In order to show the power of the Great Tomorrow, Lan Yu also took dozens of Japanese nobles as prisoners and prepared to sacrifice them to the Taimiao. This series of Japanese captives and dazzling gold made the people of the entire Ying Tianfu burst out with unimaginable enthusiasm.

"These are the widows? Hey, he's so fierce, he's not tall, but all of them are like evil ghosts. ”

"What about demons? It's not that all of my Ming soldiers have been captured by thousands of miles to see how they still bring disaster to my Ming Haijiang! ”

"Look at the gold! It's a dazzling sight! Is there so much gold in the land of the Japanese country? ”

At this moment, the achievements of Xinxue's "pioneering and enterprising" were undoubtedly revealed in front of the people.
